Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- Tucked among exquisite cherry blossom trees, this classic Essex County landmark brings Tuscan-inspired elegance to the heart of New Jersey. Set within the 360-acre Branch Brook Park, the private grounds that surround Naninas seamlessly combine the Park's organic, American romantic design with a formal European refinement—think rows of colorful annual blooms, a meandering creek crossed by a quaint footbridge, bubbling fountains and natural stone waterfalls, refined statuary, and columned pergolas draped in abundant vines (a favorite spot for ceremonies). There's also lovely, light-filled nondenominational chapel for your "I do"s.
- At the heart of the property is the dramatic, villa-style reception hall, which welcomes guests inside with a truly jaw-dropping foyer boasting a row of arched entryways supported by Corinthian columns, a sweet Juliet balcony, and a central staircase and mezzanine level lined with intricate wrought-iron railings. The Ballroom is the centerpiece of your celebration, and it's equally impressive—a soaring, vaulted ceiling runs the length of the space, enhanced by ornamental fluted moldings, tiered crystal chandeliers, and custom uplighting to ensure the party really rocks.
- The hospitality and culinary experience feels as royal as the setting. The talented staff pride themselves on ensuring every moment feels grand and every detail is executed seamlessly, pampering you from the moment you begin your prep in the gorgeous dressing suites to the joyful cheers of your final farewell. The food is marvelous, too, with an awe-inspiring diversity of menu options—think wine tasting stations or martini bars, passed canapés of fresh sushi and their iconic chicken Naninas, and indulgent Chateaubriand or Shrimp Naninas.
